In a written reply, Minister of State for Human Resource Development (HRD) Upendra Kushwaha said the CBSE has also developed an online mechanism for submission and scrutiny of affiliation applications.
"710 Affiliation applications are pending with Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) for more than six months," he said.
The CBSE, from time to time, amends its affiliation bye-laws to make the process transparent and robust for effective functioning, Kushwaha added.
